Forecasts

Roaring Legend (2/1), Savanna King (10/3), Liable (9/2), Story Horse (11/2), Talisman (8/1), Seahouses (8/1), Manuelito (16/1), Bloodhound (18/1), Berkshire Sundance (40/1), Sgian Dubh (80/1)

LIABLE took a step forward from his debut despite still looking green at Yarmouth last time and, with more progress expected, he takes marginal preference over Roaring Legend, who has marginally the best form to this point. Seahouses is also considered.
